What are you feeding every watering and where did those leaves ocme from on the plant. a plant shot might be helpful.

just molasses and water. Had someone taking care of the grow and they were using molasses everywatering vs. every other. leaves came from middle of plant. all growth about these leaves is lighter in color and slightly stunted.

I flushed them out with plain tap water yesterday. I'll take the camera over there later.

I would keep flushing for a week or two alpha..but let that tap sit out overnight or bubble it..are you already doing that I hope? By doing that it take evaporates the bad guys like chloromine and chlorine out..then start them back up on the feeding regimen, but lightly at first..hope this helps a little..good luck..

I must have missed something when i was gone. Why is everybody here molasses fanatics? And since when has molasses been considered a fert? Am I missing something. I use molasses in my soil prep, but nothing else and thats for bacterial growth. ??????

WC..blackstrap molasses is a great source of cal mag and when used in teas, aids benny bacteria..well feeds it anyway..a great organic sugar source for the plants to synthesize..

indeed cellardweller.

but as is the case with most things, less is more.

I'll continue flushing them for at least another week or so.
and yes I do bubble my water.
